บททั้งหมดของ BITTEN BY THE ALPHA: ALPHA ZANE: บทที่ 101 - บทที่ 110

KatarinaMy heart starts to beat faster. I don’t know whether I should regret coming here or not. But this is still my home, and Augustine is my father. Being with Zane doesn’t change that.“Dad… I came to see you.”“For what?” He walks over to the windows, his gaze sweeping across the outside like he’s expecting an ambush. “Are you here with him? Did you plan to kill me?”“God, Dad, no! I would never do that!” How could he even think that?“I had a clean shot, Katarina,” he accuses, with a bitter tone. “That bullet would’ve landed in his heart. But you saved him. You confirmed to every wolf hunter that you’re a wolf fucker. You’re not a hunter anymore.”“That’s not true, Dad,” my voice cracks. I can feel the tears building in my eyes, but I try to fight them back. “I’m still a hunter.”“A hunter would never choose a wolf over her own.”Once upon a time, I thought that too. But things have changed. I’ve changed, and Zane has too.“I love him, Dad,” I whisper, barely able to stop the w

KatarinaMy heart pounds. Stay calm, Katarina, she can hear your heartbeat. Don’t give her any more reasons to suspect you. Besides, she probably knows nothing about my plans. She wants me to slip up. But I’m not going to give her that satisfaction. There are only two people who know my secrets, and that’s Cyprian and Cassandra. And my friends will never betray me. They’ve risked themselves to help me. Plus, if Magdalena had anything concrete, she’d have told Zane, and he would definitely have confronted me for what I’ve done—love or not.“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” I fold my arms, keeping a straight face. She won’t get any information out of me. I’m smarter than that.“Oh, I’ll remind you,” she sneers. “From trying to kill him so many times, to helping your useless father escape the fortress, to turning Zane against his own uncle. And now, you’ve come back after whatever scheme you’ve been running. I know you weren’t at the Academy’s road trip—you went back to your fa

Katarina “Could you just lower your voice, Bex?” I plead quietly.“This isn’t fair,” Bex growls, storming off while still clinging to her silver star.“Bex… wait,” Cassandra calls after her.She walks back to us, angry.“She’s not even a wolf, Cassandra. I’m going to talk to my dad about this. This is unacceptable.”She rolls her eyes at me and storms off.Christ! Bex looks so furious. I bet she thinks I don’t deserve a gold rank—and she’s not wrong. I’ll have to talk to Zane.“Did you know about this?” Cassandra asks, her eyes narrowing at me.“I promise you, Cassie, I had absolutely no idea,” I insist. “And I don’t even want this.”“Don’t say that!” Cyprian interjects. “You deserve it.”“No, I don’t. Bex is right. This just feels like I slept my way to the top.”“Well, whatever it is, you’re at the top now, Katty. Congratulations!” Cassandra giggles, pulling me into a hug.I sigh, shaking my head. “I can’t even deal with this right now. There’s already so much on my plate.”“Like w

KatarinaI can’t hide the disappointment on my face when I see Roselyn.“Hi, Roselyn. Is Zane back yet?” I ask, unable to hide the anxiety creeping into my voice.She gives me a pitying look. “No, he’s not. You two had a fight yesterday, didn’t you?”I walk into the house and sink into the chair, my hands sliding from my face, running through my hair, and finally dropping to my sides.“Why can’t he just come home?”“Katty, Alpha Zane is a man with pride. Why not just apologize and ask him to come back home?”“What? How can I do that? He’s the one who’s wrong. He left home and didn’t come back the whole night. And now I find out that he slept at Magdalena’s house.”Roselyn doesn’t look surprised.“Why aren’t you surprised?”“Alpha Zane and Magdalena are thick as thieves. They understand each other. I mean, that’s where I expected him to go.”“So what? My mate fights with me and then runs off to another woman?”“Magdalena’s not just another woman, Katty. She’s his Beta, and they happen

KatarinaZane and I have made up. There’s no way I’m leaving my man for another woman, especially not that bitch, Magdalena. Besides, going back home is not a good idea.I think I’m happy. A week free of Magdalena has been awesome. Zane’s keeping his promise. Meanwhile, I’ve been getting nonstop calls from Francis. He’s pressuring me about our wedding. But how can I marry him when I’m in love with Zane? The worst part is that he has Dad’s support. I’ve been dragging my feet. I can’t even risk Zane finding out.My phone rings, vibrating on the table. It’s Dad. He’s calling to threaten me, I’m sure—either to kill Zane to prove my loyalty or to come back home.What if I’m just delaying the inevitable? Zane and I are sworn enemies. What if his wolves and my dad never let us be together? Will one of us eventually kill the other, or will we both die for love?“Your task is to group yourselves and understand the role each pack plays in the wolf zone. See you next class,” Professor Bennett sa
